Sometimes I wish you could see trough my eyes
Watch my life flash like a busted light bulb
Sometimes I wish my dreams were your reality
So you know how it feels to be me
Sometimes I wish you were in my shoes
Walking the paths you laid for me
Sometimes I wish you listened to yourself speak
So you hear your own harsh words
Sometimes I wonder if all you see me as is a puppet
Am I the puppet you make live the life you didn't
Sometimes I wonder if you realize what you don't say hurts
Like falling on broken glass
Sometimes I wonder if when I cry you notice
My eyes stream but your shoulder isn't there to greet them
Sometimes I wonder if you love me
Like a mother should

Your comment was posted, but it wasn’t long enough to count as a review. Reviews need about four complete sentences (at least 250 characters). Try writing another review that explains your thoughts in more detail — the author will appreciate it, and you’ll earn points for it.
You lack major punctuation and it makes it look choppy. I think that more imagry and better flow would suit this poem better. It has major potential, I understood how you felt, but just becuase I feel the same way. Keep trying.

It's a good start, but I think you should put some more work into this poem. A lot of the images you use are common, and you don't go into them enough to give your own twist to them.
I like this image, but perhaps 'flash' isn't the proper word: it implies, at least to me, something really bright, which I do not think is what you were going for here.I'd also suggest looking over your tenses: they're kind of iffy in places.
Nice start, though. Just try to give it a bit more thought, and polish it more.
